Dreamers

Sometimes I wonder if it’s self-centered or just crude to begin every sentence with “I”… all the time. The other two words would be “my” and “mine.” The concerns and worries only last for a few minutes, but it’s enough to make me cringe just a little. I’ve no doubt addressed this before, but it Continue reading

Quinn

There are many instances where I’ve wanted to throw my hands up and say: “You know what? I quit!” Yet… due to circumstances that I technically control, I can’t do that. I can’t just abandon all the responsibilities I have. I can’t abandon my cat or my friends. I would say family too… but half Continue reading

I Will Remember You

What is my seat of motivation? Where is the well that I draw from daily? I’m not exactly sure. All I know is that I have a much stronger desire to live than I have before. Even though my days can be tiring, I still enjoy what I’m able to do… Everyday. Even on days Continue reading

Sutures

Today I vented. I mean really, seriously vented. I was upset, frustrated and angry over what I was going through. It was stuff that I haven’t mentioned on here. So, I chose one of my closest friends and asked her if I could unload. What makes really good friends is that they’re willing to listen Continue reading

Promises, Promises

I can’t complain much about today. However, I am frustrated with myself. Since I didn’t get enough sleep last night, that threw everything else off today. I have fantastic news though… I have hot water again. I’m so happy! I look forward to a warm shower in the morning. I’m in the midst of loading Continue reading

Unquenched Thirst

Today was a very good one. I’ve been attempting to keep up with the demands of my scheduled ‘chore’ lists. ‘Cept I think I was early today. Was spose to take out trash tomorrow… so I guess I can check it off the list ahead of time? It can be a lot. The list that Continue reading

HAHAHAHAHA!

I love Chicago. Don’t you? By that, I don’t mean the location, nor am I referring to the musical of the same name. Instead, I’m going through my catalogue of music by them. It’s funny in a way. Much of the music I enjoy the most come from the 1980s to early 2000s. Though, I Continue reading

Hapless Hubris

… I’m growing more and more uncertain how to start these. Of late, all I can imagine myself writing in my blog is “I” … “I… I… I… I”!! I shouldn’t be upset at myself over this. After all, the entire blog is supposed to be about my life. It’s meant to be a solid Continue reading

Insert Placeholder Here. Wait! Do You Have The Space??

I really hate to do this, but I have to make this quick. I have to get up suuuper early in the morning. As a quick update: And while on the discussion of my currently outstanding status as “Single” … I’m beginning to accept it as what it is. I would absolutely love having a Continue reading

Fragility

10:57AM I feel exposed right now. Lost, alone and weak. I’ve been struggling with my memory all morning, traveling from room to room – only to forget what I was going to the room to begin with. I suppose this is just par for the course? My new meds are badly affecting my memory. 9:53PM Continue reading
